Seen Around Lamorinda: Messages for Brett Olson
Lafayette looks for ways to say goodbye to one of its own.
Most Lafayette residents don't want to talk about this week's loss of a true native son. Various messages have popped up around town, left in flour on a hillside overlooking his high school or scrawled in crayon and craft paper and pinned to a signpost.
Memorial service scheduled for Tuesday night, 7 p.m. at Acalanes. Olson grew up playing on Lafayette's sports courts and in his latter years allowed his inner actor to shine in high school stage productions.
